from the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
Question presented
1. Whether criminal statutes containing their own comprehensive enforcement provisions and penalties are, as in Section 1983, excluded from serving as predicate “laws” for additional criminal enforcement under Section 241? 2. Whether the criminal enforcement remedies contained in the FACE Act, 18 U.S.C. § 248(a)&(b), are sufficiently comprehensive to preclude additional criminal enforcement through Section 241?
